Republic Services, Inc. announced that it
is providing its commercial customers with an environmentally
safe process for disposing of fluorescent lamps. Through an alliance
with WasteSecure, Republic provides a convenient, cost-effective
solution to help customers manage their recycling activity.

Republic’s commercial and industrial customers
who sign up will participate in a simple, turnkey, mail-back
program for recycling fluorescent lamps. An all-inclusive price
covers recycling containers, shipping by FedEX, processing, and
complete online tracking and reports. Auto-reorder is available
to make sure customers always have a supply of recycling boxes
for their fluorescent lamps.

Republic launched the program for its large
national industrial and commercial customers. Once the initial
roll-out of the program is complete, the Company anticipates
offering it to all of its industrial and commercial customers
in 2011. Republic selected WasteSecure as a partner due to its
large geographic footprint and its industry-leading practices.
